The new term is upon us.
Saturday, 13 July 2024
The school holidays can be an excellent time to get your child started in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu BJJ for several reasons:
More Free Time: Without the daily demands of school, children have more free time and flexibility in their schedules. This makes it easier to attend regular BJJ classes and potentially even participate in intensive training camps or workshops.
Mental Engagement: Learning a new skill like BJJ can keep children mentally engaged during the break. The strategic and problem-solving aspects of BJJ can be intellectually stimulating and help improve focus and discipline.
Social Interaction: BJJ classes provide a structured environment where children can meet new friends and interact with peers who share similar interests. This can be especially beneficial during holidays when they might miss the social interactions they get at school.
Boosts Confidence: Starting BJJ during the holidays can give children a sense of accomplishment and boost their self-confidence as they learn new techniques and overcome challenges.
